    Glossary Address The address of a node is used for locating it in the network. It has to be unique in the entire network. Aggregate current Aggregate current of all PA or FF field devices. Automation system An automation system is a programmable control system, consisting of at least one CPU, various input and output modules as well as operating and monitoring devices.
  • Page 92 Glossary Diagnostics Diagnostics is the detection, localization, classification, display and further evaluation of errors, faults and messages. Diagnostics provides monitoring functions that run automatically while the plant is in operation. This increases the availability of plants by reducing commissioning times and downtimes. DP master A master that behaves in conformity with IEC 61784‑1 CP 3/1 is termed a DP master.
  • Page 93 Glossary ● Fieldbus Foundation ● OPC Foundation The EDDL (Electronic Device Description Language) is used as basis for the device descriptions. Electromagnetic compatibility Electromagnetic compatibility is the capacity of electrical equipment to function faultlessly in a specified environment without affecting the environment in an inadmissible manner. Equipment, associated A piece of electrical equipment that contains both intrinsically safe and non-intrinsically safe power circuits and is configured so that the non-intrinsically safe power circuits cannot impede...
  • Page 94 Glossary FF Link Master A master that behaves in conformity with IEC 61784‑1 CP 1/1 is termed a FOUNDATION Fieldbus Link Master. The bus link (Compact FF Link) acts as a DP slave for "higher-level" systems (toward the automation system) and as an FF Link Master for "lower-level" systems (toward the FF devices).
  • Page 95 Glossary HW Config STEP 7 for configuring hardware. Integral part of Identification and maintenance data Identification data (I data) is information on the module, some of which are printed onto the module housing. I data are for reading only. Maintenance data (M data) is plant-dependent information such as installation location, installation date etc.
  • Page 96 Glossary PROFIBUS PROcess FIeld BUS, process and fieldbus standard as specified in IEC 61784-1 CPF 3 PROFIBUS and PROFINET. It specifies functional, electrical, and mechanical properties for a bit-serial field bus system. PROFIBUS is available with the protocols: DP (=distributed I/O) and FMS (= Field bus Message Specification) PROFIBUS address Each bus node must be assigned a PROFIBUS address for unambiguous identification on...
  • Page 97 Glossary SELV Safety extra low voltage (SELV) is voltage < 30 V AC / 60 V DC that is generated by means of safety transformer, accumulator etc. SIMATIC PDM SIMATIC PDM (Process Device Manager) is an integrated, vendor-neutral tool used for configuring, parameter assignment, commissioning and diagnosing intelligent process SIMATIC PDM makes it possible to configure a large variety of process devices with devices.
